The instructions I received to meet the shuttle from the greyhound bus stop to the hotel were mostly useless. I had to phone back 3 times before we found the shuttle. The front desk man was largely unintelligible. Worse than most hotel staff during my visit to Mexico. I was not giving useful info regarding laundry machines, change required and soap purchasing causing me to go back and forth down a long corridor 3 times unnecessarily while exhausted from travel. There was no bed table or light on the other side of the bed. I expected better for $180.

This was a wonderful stop for a one night stay in San Diego for us. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The free shuttle from the airport was also a plus. The rooms were extremely clean as well as the entire property. They provide a nice breakfast in a dining room that included fresh fruit fresh-made pancakes cinnabon cinnamon rolls eggs omelets and breakfast meats along with a lot of other things. I would highly recommend this if you were staying near the airport

Holiday Inn Express scored big time with me for their excellent shuttle service! They were so friendly and accommodating in picking us up from the airport, taking us to Old Town, and getting us to our cruise embarking port. They also had a fantastic breakfast available - a step above most hotels!

The room furnitures are arranged poorly. Sofa bed block the toilet and there is no space and we have to jump over the bed. There is no complimentary toilet bag and we need to call front desk but they don’t provide the front desk number so we have to go on elevator every time we need front desk. Sheets don’t seem freshly cleaned. We needed to wash baby clothes but it needed 32 quarters and front desk again said they couldn’t help!

The hotel was nice but the bathroom in our room smelled terrible. It was as if someone had just dropped a huge load and walked out. There was TP still in the toilet. As we were enjoying some on the best pizza we've ever had from Bronk's Pizza (get the calzone!), a massive spider was spotted crawling on the ceiling. Given the fact that our bathroom had been destroyed by an employee (I'm assuming since they clean in right before we get there) we had to take matters into our own hands. After risking my life and playing exterminator, the threat was neutralized and I was able to once again, enjoy my pizza. Breakfast was a 4.8 out of 10.

First time stying here for a 2 day 1 night trip. We went to Seaworld, only 8 minutes away from the hotel. Then at night we went over for some dinner in Little Italy, also 8 minutes away. Great location! Everything is close by. The hotel was very clean and in great condition. They have a complimentary breakfast bar in the morning! Great way to start the day. I would definitely stay here again and look forward to another San Diego trip.

I flew into San Diago from London and as a female traveler, I needed a safe, accessible, good value for money hotel that provided shuttle service. This hotel did not disappoint. The facilities are excellent and the staff courteous and helpful. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms clean. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for international travelers.
